This is a tutorial on: The Command Block! I will show you how to get it, as well as how to use it. Let's get started.
Okay so that was the /give command. But there is much much more! Here is some mini-tutorials on some other commands!
And that concludes our tutorial for now. I will update daily with more commands! Have fun!
(Yes this list is from the minecraft wiki. Credited down at the bottom of this blog
What is a Command Block?
A Command Block is a block used to enhance the player's gameplay. For example, you can make objects "talk" to the player. You can give things to a player, or even teleport them! All you have to do is activate it with a redstone current.
How do I get one?
Command Blocks are NOT found in the creative selection screen. To get it, you must type a /give command. To type the Command, first press "/" (Without Quotes) then type: "give [playername] 137" The finished command will look like this:
/give [playername] 137
/give is a command that gives blocks, items, or entitys to players. 137 is the Id of the Command Block.
/give [playername] 137
/give is a command that gives blocks, items, or entitys to players. 137 is the Id of the Command Block.
How to I use it?
To use the Command Block, you type a command into it (Hence the name, Command Block). But you must be an Oped player in Creative Mode. But when you type the command, how does it know the playername? Well, instead of typing every username in the world, you use an @ substitute. There are 3 kinds:
@p: Do the command to the nearest player
@r: Do the command to a random player
@a: Do the command to every player.
Confused? That's okay. Here's an example. Lets say we want to give a random player a diamond (Getting any ideas? ;3). To do this, we type in a /give command. The Id of a diamond is 264. So the command is:
/give @r 264
When the Command block is activated, a random player gets a diamond :D
@p: Do the command to the nearest player
@r: Do the command to a random player
@a: Do the command to every player.

Okay so that was the /give command. But there is much much more! Here is some mini-tutorials on some other commands!
/say
Here is a simple yet very useful command! Best used for adventure maps and such. As you can probably imagine, this command tells all the players in the world something. So this means you can't target with @p. Heres an example:
Let's say that you want a command to say "Hahaha! You can't defeat me!" menacingly. So first type /say, the command.
/say
Then the message
/say Hahaha! You can't defeat me!
So when the command block is activated, it will say the message.
And here's a bonus: Remember how I said it can't target with the targeting commands(@p, @a, and @r)?
Well it can use them in a different way. Say you want it to say "[playername], you can't defeat me!" To do this use the command:
/say @p, you can't defeat me!
And it will use the closest persons name! Cool right?

/tp
Here's a tricky one for some. This one can teleport the targetted player(s) to a certain spot. To use this, you need to know
the coordinates of where you are teleporting the targets to. To find this out, first stand where you are transporting them. Then, press f3. (It's kind of above the "3" and "4" buttons on your keyboard) Look for where it says: x: number y: number z: number (Only 'number' is a real number). Write these down in the order of the x number, then the y number, and finally the z number. Now go to the command block and type the command.
/tp
Next, put the target.
/tp @p
Then the numbers in the order I showed before. For example, let's say the numerals are 100, 2, and -130.
/tp @p 100 2 -130
And you are done! When the block is activated, it will tele the target (nearest player) to the coordinates!

/gamemode and /gamerule
Now at least one of these you are probably already familiar with. But sure enough, command blocks can do both of these. Just for /gamemode substitute the playername for a target:
/gamemode @a 0
Now the other one, /gamerule, is something not everyone knows. It can change certain settings in your world. You can have a command block system set the world up (like for an adventure map) and prevent cheating. Use:
/gamerule [gamerule] [true/false]
Notice you have to define true or false. This is a fancy way of saying on or off.
And just for the lols, I'll include a list of gamerules for you guys at the bottom of this page, just in case you want to try them out.
/gamemode @a 0

/difficulty
Like the above commands, this edits settings of the world. You have have a command block system change the difficulty throughout your map. The usage of this is easy. Start with the command, followed by the difficulty you want.
/difficulty (0/1/2/3)
0 - Peaceful
1 - Easy
2 - Normal
3 - Hard
/difficulty (0/1/2/3)
0 - Peaceful
1 - Easy
2 - Normal
3 - Hard
/effect and /enchant
Okay here's some cool ones for messing with and for custom maps. To use /effect, put the command in,
/effect
Then put the target. (For example, everyone)
/effect @a
And now enter the effect number. If you want strength, put 5.
/effect @a 5
Finally put the seconds you want it for. Shown here is a minute
/effect @a 5 60
And there you go! Super-buff people! At the bottom of this page will be a list of effect ids, in case you want to write them down.
Next we have /enchant. As always, just start with the command, and the target. (Let's say we will give a random person Sharpness V on whatever they are holding.)
/enchant @r
Sharpness's id is 16. And its level 5, so we put 5 after the 16.
/enchant @r 16 5
Tah-dah! Hopefully this person isn't holding an apple or something at the time we use this ;)
(And yes, enchantment ids at the bottom.)
